Mini-mu bacteriophage with plasmid replicons for in vivo cloning and lac gene fusing.
New mini-Mu transposons with plasmid replicons were constructed with additional features for in vivo DNA cloning and lac gene fusing in Escherichia coli. These mini-Mu replicons can be used to clone DNA by growing them with a complementing Mu bacteriophage and by using the resulting lysate to transduce Mu-lysogenic cells. These mini-Mu phage have selectable genes for resistance to kanamycin, ch...
متن کاملMini-Mu insertions in the tetracycline resistance determinant from Proteus mirabilis.
The inducible tetracycline resistance determinant isolated from Proteus mirabilis cloned into the plasmid pACYC177 was mutagenized by insertion of a mini-Mu-lac phage in order to define the regions in the cloned sequences encoding the structural and regulatory proteins. Three different types of mutants were obtained: one lost the resistance phenotype and became Lac+; another expressed the resis...
متن کاملA rapid, small scale method for characterization of plasmid insertions in the Dictyostelium genome
A rapid, simple method for characterization of plasmid insertions in the Dictyostelium discoideum genome was developed. It is based on the capability of linear plasmid multimers in the insertions to recircularize efficiently in Escherichia coli cells. This recombinational recircularization of plasmid multimers provides a highly sensitive and reliable tool for determining whether individual Dict...
متن کاملThe IncP-6 plasmid Rms149 consists of a small mobilizable backbone with multiple large insertions.
Plasmid Rms149, the archetype of Pseudomonas plasmid incompatibility group IncP-6, was identified in Pseudomonas aeruginosa as an agent conferring resistance to streptomycin, sulfanilamide, gentamicin, and carbenicillin in 1975. It has been classed as a broad-host-range plasmid due to its ability to replicate in both Escherichia coli (where it is designated IncG) and Pseudomonas species, althou...
متن کاملTemperature-sensitive mutants of bacteriophage mu.
Temperature-sensitive mutants of bacteriophage Mu, which grow at 32 C but not at 42 C, have been isolated. These mutants fall into two groups. Group 1 mutants fail to lyse host cells at nonpermissive temperatures, whereas lysis occurs normally with the group 2 mutants. All of the group 1 mutants apparently belong to the cistrons mapping to the left of gene C, whereas the group 2 mutants have le...
